Thankyou very much for letting us know about this.

I was fortunate to get there and spend a good 2 hours taking it all in. Such an array of interesting, innovative, high quality images from very talented photographer's was certainly a thing to savour. Wonderfully inspirational too!
Great to meet several of the artists present. All with a passion for their art which shows through in a live exhibition.

A great exhibition...so much to see.
And a fantastic opportunity to finally meet Bill in person after all these years.
Very impressed with your latest endeavours Bill, and quite fascinating to hear both how you achieved the results, and the thinking behind it.
"Immersive" in more than one sense of the word. Bravo !

Ah thanks so much Peter and Lee for dropping by…
Lee, so glad you were able to spend some time there and soak it all up… one of the things that really struck me about it was the sheer diversity of the work on display… landscape, seascape, travel, portrait, urban, all sorts of genres…
Peter, fab to meet you at long last… thank you so much for taking the time and the trouble to drop by… great to have a proper chat and a really good natter… properly enjoyed catching up…
Will keep you all updated with the project and where it goes next… have some gallery interest, so very much looking to do something more with it next year… have about 12 months of photographs to add to it, so looking forward to putting it all together…
Lee, you mentioned Light and Land… I run a lot of tours and workshops for them these days… full details here…
For those of you interested in Creative Photography (ICM, Multiple Exposures etc), I’m also running a residential workshop in Cornwall in January 2025, which will be glorious… full details here… do drop me a dm for more details…
Thanks again all, and look forward to cst hung up soon!
All best

Hi all… I hope this finds you all well. Just a quick heads up re a photography exhibition I’m doing in London over the coming week…
The Light and Land 30th Anniversary exhibition at The Mall Galleries, London, officially opens at 10 am tomorrow (Tuesday 3rd Sept)! Runs till this coming Saturday 7th Sept.! Loads of wonderful work from over 50 photographers.
I’ll be showing my brand new exhibition “Immersive” - see pics. I’ll be at the Private View tonight (invite only), also at the exhibition in person 5pm-7pm Tuesday 3rd Sept, and 12pm - 5pm Saturday 7th Sept. Do drop by and say hello!
I’ve been working on this pioneering Intentional Camera Movement project over the course of the last 2 years... from the Outer Hebrides to Far West Cornwall, with a fair amount of South Wales and northern France thrown into the mix as well.
Essentially this comes from a fascination with the energy of the ocean, and what happens when that energy transfers itself to the land, specifically born from spending more time than I probably should have on a surfboard getting battered.
All the photographs in this collection were taken with long exposures and a moving camera out amongst the breaking waves in, on, or underneath the ocean with Pentax cameras, a Second Skin wetsuit, and EWA-Marine waterproof housing.
Huge thanks as ever to Pentax for their continued backing and support.
All are printed onto Hahnemuhle Photo Rag, and mounted (no glass) onto sustainably sourced heavy duty plywood board. POA.
